Avoid Defamation in the Name of Freedom of Expression


Defamation involves statements or activities that may give a negative image to others or harm their reputation. You should avoid giving defamatory, slanderous or libelous statements about others. You are not allowed any scandal-mongering or character-assassination in the name of freedom of expression. You have the freedom of expression only to the extent that does not harm anyone�s reputation, hurt anyone�s feelings or infringe upon anyone�s rights. In order to be regarded respectable in the society, you should improve your own character instead of defiling others�. [A-Quran Sura 49: Verse 11; Sura 104: Verse 1]

وَلَا تَلْمِزُوا أَنفُسَكُمْ

وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ
